Bad picture, but can someone tell me if the antenna on top of the
tower is for a Ham or CB radio? (I know the one on the left is a EV
ant

In that the antenna/beam is vertical it is most likely a CB beam
antenna. An amateur radio antenna would be horizontal.

I have operated 10M FM in the past... using ground planes and vertical
dipoles. It is possible that that is a devoted 10M FM ham. However,
I'll admit, not likely, and is probably a CB amtemma.

Without some reference for size, anything would only be a guess.
The most common guess would be either a 10 or 11 meter antenna, since
it appears to at least be in that range, sort of. After that, it's
only a guess.

Could be a 6m beam.

I seriously doubt that the antenna knows the difference. 8)

I can't see the image very well, but it looks like (to me) that there are
two larger and two smaller elements on the mast. As I said, the image isn't
very clear, so I could be mistaken.

Problem is, I can't think of a dual band antenna that would use that much
spacing between the two interior smaller elements. But what do I know?

Unless this antenna was used to work a 10 meter repeater.

Yep.

Or it could be and dual band 10 and 6 meter beam. To me, the interior two
elements look considerably shorter than the end elements. Could be just my
eyes.

OK, I'm gonna try and get a better picture for you guys, but it won't
be today because it's pouring down rain.
